Eastbound lanes of Brookside Avenue will be closed 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays this month between San Mateo Street and Roma Avenue for a water pipeline replacement project, according to city of Redlands officials.
"Construction will begin the week of Dec. 3 on the Brookside Avenue Water Pipeline Replacement Project," Redlands spokesman Carl Baker said in a statement.
"Eastbound traffic lanes on Brookside Avenue in this area will be closed between the hours of 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. during the four-week project," Baker said.
During the closures on Brookside, traffic will be detoured to Olive Avenue, Baker said.
The City Council awarded the contract for construction of the Brookside Avenue Pipeline Replacement Project to Christiansen Pipeline, Inc., on Oct. 2, Baker said.
The project cost, estimated at $289,660, is expected to be covered by "water funding sources," Baker said.
"No General Fund dollars will be used to construct this project," Baker said.
Construction is expected to be completed by Dec. 28.
"Parking will be restricted on the south side of Brookside Avenue during the duration of construction," Baker said. "Affected residents will have access to their property. Construction activities are scheduled between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. Signs will be posted 72 hours in advance of repaving indicating parking restrictions."
The City of Redlands Resurfacing Program, Phase 1 is designed and managed by the City of Redlands Municipal Utilities and Engineering Department, Baker said.
